15、 I was born. In two weeks I am going to be married, and my fiance (未婚妻), Samantha, and I expect to be very happy. We do not plan to have honeymoon because we want to spend two weeks setting up our own new business as real estate agents （房地产代理商）My mother, who is very traditional（传统的）, says that our p

16、lans are unreasonable. She thinks that we should just spend the two weeks on a holiday in the Caribbean. In her days, and in the old country, young couples didnt start businesses together. Instead, the man went out to work, and the wife stayed home to raise a family.Both Samantha and I want children

17、 in the future, and together we plan to raise them. Needless to say, our plans and my mothers views dont agree. I suppose its hard for my mother and father to understand our point of view. They are used to another way of setting up a marriage and a life.Another thing that worries my parents is the f

18、act that Samantha and I are going to be spending seven days a week on our business until it is running smoothly. As my mother has pointed out to us, such a timetable will leave us little time for socializing or for a night in the town. My mother says a young couple should enjoy themselves and get to

19、 know each other under less exciting conditions.Actually, Samantha and I know each other pretty well. We both work hard for our goals, and neither of us minds giving up weekends for a while. We are young and enthusiastic (热心于事业的)56. Christopher and Samantha will not have honeymoon because .A they ex

Christophers mother and father are .A against the couples marriageB used to the old country customsC expecting to be very happyD becom

21、ing more used to American marriage58. The best title for this passage is .A Samantha and Christophers MarriageB Building a Modern American MarriageC Old World Views on MarriageD Starting a New BusinessBToday, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motor-way. But still there is a danger

22、 that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in midair, 600 lives could be lost.From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every mo

23、vement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around busy airport like London-Heathrow may dea

24、l with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towa

25、rds the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong p

26、lane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided (避免)each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming p

27、ool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.59. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A Traveling by air is as safe as by carB Traveling by air is not as safe as by carC Traveling by car is as dangerous as by airD Traveling by car is more dangerous than by air60. Th

28、e air traffic contrlllers of an airport .A control all the planes flying near the airportB give orders to planes leaving the airportC only deal with the planes that want to land thereD are allowed to handle 250 planes a day61. The danger of air crashes grows every year because .A airliners are getti

29、ng larger and air traffic is becoming heavierB a pilot does not always hear a controllers orderC a controller is likely to make more and more mistakesD airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes62. The example in the passage is to show that .A air traffic controllers are often careles

30、sB air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidentsC it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidentsD two planes should not fly too close to each otherCA few years ago it was popular to speak of a generation gap, a disagreement between young people and their elders.

31、Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained （抱怨）that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argu

32、e that a gap is built into the fabric (结构) of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry peopl

33、e that their parents know and agree to, and to continue the family occupation (职业). In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family home at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose occupations differen

34、t from those of their parents.In our easily changing society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs, to make more money; and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the strong desire that parents have for their children are anot

35、her cause of the disagreement between them Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom

36、, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities.No doubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature(特点) of American life for some time to come. Its c

37、auses are rooted in the freedom and changes of our society, and in the rapid speed at which society changes.63. The main idea of the first paragraph is that .A the generation gap suddenly appearedB the generation gap is a feature of modem social lifeC people can reduce the generation gapD many criti

38、cs argue over the nature of the generation gap64. Which cause of the generation gap is not mentioned in the passage?A Young people like to choose their own life styles.B American society is changing very fast.C Parents place high hopes on their childrenD Modern education makes them think differently

41、st beautiful and most famous cities in the world.Paris is called the City of Light. It is also an international fashion (时装) center.

Thirty-two bridges cross this scenic river. The oldest and perhaps most well-known is the Pont Neuf, which was built in the sixteenth century. T

43、he Sorbonne, a famous university, is located （位于）on the Left Bank ( south side) of the river. The beautiful white church Sacre Coeur lies on top of the hill called Montmartre on the Right Bank (north bank) of the Seine.There are many other famous places in Paris, such as the famous museum the Louvre

44、 as well as the cathedral of Notre Dame. However, the most famous land-mark in this city must be the Eiffel Tower.Paris is named after a group of people called the Parisii. They built a small village on an island in the middle of the Seine River about two thousand years ago. This island, called the

45、lle de la Cite, is where Notre Dame is located. Today around eight million people live in the Paris area.68.

50、n when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this kind of students. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their school.You no

51、w know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained. You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The writer bel

52、ieves that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure (结构) in their classes. They want and need to have rules. In some cases, they must be made to study some subjects.
